🎯 Why Assigning Reviewers Matters
Properly matching reviewers with reviewees ensures fair, relevant, and constructive feedback — which is essential for meaningful performance evaluations. This step is especially important in Peer Reviews, where insights from colleagues provide a deeper perspective on teamwork and collaboration.
